Happy Canada Day!

With a very hearty appreciation for our next door neighbours: CANADA!

Thank you for making this continent and this culture much more interesting. We aren't always the easiest elephant to share a bed with, but the U.S.A. needs Canada as an exemplar of how to be a civilized nation. Thank you.

And a great place to become a refugee when U.S.A. goose steps into total fascism. Plus don't forget the cheap pharmaceuticals that are keeping our elderly from eating catfood for supper.

And then there is the great hydro bud grown in British Columbia!

WOOO-WHOOO!
Oh Canada glorious and free!

Hehehe. Some of us have already fled to the land of Many Many Lakes & Hockey.

And, Oh Em Gee the smokable materials available up here are Mighty Mighty Nice. *wink*

Hah. Ontario has nothing on BC for bud!

I'm working on it. It's the primary reason I went back to school to get my degree, so Canada would hire me.

And yes, living here along the southern border of BC, I know that it's good to be British Columbian!

So does Canada prefer immigrants with degrees?
I've got my BS in Mechanical Engineering.

Yup. Canada operates its immigration on a point system. You get points for a degree, more points for an advanced degree, points each for fluency in English and French, etc... but the big points-earner is having a firm job offer in Canada. Having the degree makes you more employable. Ask [livejournal.com profile] atldaddybear about that.
